Keysight, NTU team up on hybrid V2X communications

The results will help realize smart mobility.

Keysight Technologies announces its collaboration with Nanyang Technology University (NTU) to develop a transceiver test bench for a hybrid vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication system.

V2X technologies include dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) and cellular-V2X (C-V2X). However, a single unified V2X test solution does not exist.

NTU is doing research on a reconfigurable transceiver system specifically for hybrid (DSRC+C-V2X) communication at 5.9 GHz ISM band. This includes possible extension to the millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequency range using cost-effective complementary metal-oxide semiconductor technology.

Keysight provided NTU with test solutions and capabilities for generating and analyzing both DSRC and C-V2X signals. This included testing and validation requirements for multi-components and system-level specifications in V2X communication standards, as well as 5G signal generation and analysis in the mmWave frequency range and multiple-input and multiple-output mode.

The results will help accelerate smart mobility with unified V2X testing.
